Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow underwent successful surgery Friday to repair a turf toe injury on his left foot, according to coach Zac Taylor.
While Taylor did not offer an official timeline, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter that Burrow is expected to miss a minimum of three months.
"There's no reason to give a timeline," Taylor said after Friday's practice. "We don't have a timeline. Now he's just in recovery and we'll go from there."
Burrow had the procedure at the Andrews Sports Medicine & Orthopaedic Center in Birmingham, Alabama, according to a team source.
Starting with Sunday's game at the Minnesota Vikings (1-1), Jake Browning will be the team's starting quarterback with Burrow out. Browning started seven games in 2023 when Burrow suffered a season-ending wrist injury.
In other injury news, the Bengals could be without top cornerback Cam Taylor-Britt against the Vikings and All-Pro wide receiver Justin Jefferson.
Taylor-Britt is listed as doubtful with a hamstring injury, after he was hurt in Wednesday's practice and did not participate Thursday. On Friday morning, he was in uniform for stretching but did not participate in any position drills during the period of practice open to the media.
Taylor said he wasn't ready to rule Taylor-Britt out with 48 hours remaining until kickoff.
Bengals cornerback DJ Turner II, who also had a hamstring injury this week, is expected to be available. He is the projected starter on the outside if Taylor-Britt is sidelined.
Cincinnati is looking for its first 3-0 start to the season since 2015.
